Derribando Sueños

Los Enanitos Verdes' song "Derribando Sueños" delves into the themes of transformation, resilience, and the pursuit of genuine happiness. The lyrics reflect a world in flux, where many things are changing, yet some fundamental aspects remain constant. The opening lines suggest a sense of disillusionment and a desire to escape, as people feel the weight of their struggles and seek new beginnings. This sentiment is encapsulated in the line, "hay pasaportes que ya se quieren ir," indicating a longing for a fresh start or a different reality.

The chorus, "Y yo estoy solo, derribando sueños, sueños quiero elegir," highlights the personal journey of the narrator. They are alone, breaking down dreams that no longer serve them or bring happiness. This act of 'derribando sueños' (breaking dreams) symbolizes the rejection of societal expectations and the courage to forge one's own path. The repetition of this phrase underscores the ongoing struggle and the determination to find dreams that align with their true desires and aspirations.

The song also touches on the collective experience of seeking truth and authenticity in a world filled with deceit. The line, "Se que estamos cansados de gente que nos quiere mentir," speaks to the exhaustion from being lied to and manipulated. Despite this, the narrator identifies as a soldier who refuses to give up, embodying resilience and perseverance. The shared quest for survival and fulfillment is a unifying theme, as expressed in the lines, "Vos y yo buscamos lo mismo, todo el mundo quiere lo mismo." This collective journey emphasizes the universal desire for a meaningful and authentic life, free from the constraints of unfulfilling dreams.
